Cut

Working with one of the Junction44 collective artists and photomontagist Julia Andrews-Clifford, we produced this video sting as a record of her blackShed Gallery show: Cut.

Julia works with found paper advertising ephemera—ripping text and images from advertising, fashion magazines and vintage publications. The process may be destructive, but the result is graphic and crisp, portraying an underlying intention that goes beyond a simple subversion of her sources. This film was shot to reflect the snips and tears of the paper as it is reshaped by the artist; with a soundtrack of rips demarcating the film edits.
